About this document

Inteins: Key Tools in Protein Chemistry by rafa is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Inteins are auto-processing protein domains that perform protein splicing, a biochemical reaction involving the cleavage and formation of peptide bonds, and are found across all life forms. This review discusses the biological context, structure, and function of inteins, as well as their applications in protein engineering and chemical biology. The document highlights the evolutionary significance of inteins, their mechanisms of spread and loss, and the diverse technologies developed from their unique prope
